Hi David and Ludovic,

I've been doing configuration management in GuixSD with propellor by
Joey Hess. https://propellor.branchable.com/

While it works great, I would prefer any tool that works with Guile
syntax.

  I like the idea of 'guix deploy', and maybe something to propagates
  given configuration files, like 'guix config prepare' and later 'guix
  config apply'.

Now, how can I contribute? work the guix command?

Let me know if you have a specific repository or place to find any work
done on this.
